Bangalore, January 22, 2010: The introduction of the Java Persistence API signaled the beginning of the end of using proprietary Hibernate or TopLink mapping files and session APIs to persist your business objects to a relational database. While developers have flocked to the new standard and have been happily developing persistence applications on JPA 1.0, the specification has continued to evolve. The JPA 2.0 release adds even more features and provides even more flexibility to app developers than ever. Java Persistence expert Mike Keith is coming back this summer to India's biggest summit for the software developer ecosystem - Great Indian Developer Summit (http://www.developersummit.com/) to teach some of the important advances made by JPA 2.0 and illustrate the new functionality through examples and sample code. He will also impart valuable tips and tricks along the way to help you develop better JPA applications.

Mike Keith, a GIDS alumini, was a co-lead of the EJB 3.0 and JPA 1.0 specifications in addition to representing Oracle on the Java EE 5 specification expert group. He co-authored the premier JPA reference book called Pro EJB 3: Java Persistence API and has over 15 years of teaching, research and development experience in object-oriented and distributed systems, specializing in object persistence. He currently works as an architect for Java persistence strategies at Oracle and represents Oracle on the JPA 2.0 (JSR 317) and Java EE 6 (JSR 316) expert groups.
